Noise Reduction. The quantitative measure of sound isolation between spaces is called Noise Reduction (NR). The NR between two spaces, such as from the exterior to the interior of a dwelling, depends on the TL of the various components in the separating wall, the area of the separating wall, and the acoustical absorption n the receiving room. This value takes more into account than just the sound transmission characteristics of the wall material. Generally, values of NR are determined in one-third octave bands. A higher NR gives a lower noise level in the receiving room, indicating greater noise insulation. Noise Level Reduction: NLR is used to describe the reduction of environmental noise sources, such as aircraft. Lt is a single-number metric based on values of A-weighted noise reduction (NR). The greater the sound insulation in a wall, the lower the noise level in the receiving room, giving a higher NLR. The NLR is useful because it is a simpler metric to use than NR; one number is easier to apply than a set of numbers in one-third octave bands. However some building materials and components are more effective at reducing low-frequency noise than other materials or components. Since aircraft noise contains a lot of low frequency sound, it is important to ensure that insulating materials and components perform well at low frequencies. NLR is a good indicator of overall wall performance but may not be appropriate when designing modifications for aircraft noise reduction, especially if a good NLR value disguises poor low frequency insulation. Sound Transmission Class: Since working with a series of one-third octave TL measurements can be cumbersome, a single number descriptor based on the one-third octave values has been developed. This rating method is called the Sound Transmission Class (SIC). Like TL, the higher the STC rating for a construction method or component, the higher the sound insulation. Originally, STC ratings were developed as a single-number descriptor for the TL of interior office walls for typical office noise and speech spectra. Now, they are used, often incorrectly, for exterior walls as well. Most acoustical materials and components are commonly specified in terms of their SIC ratings. Sound Transmission Loss: This is the physical measure, which describes the sound insulation value of a built construction system or component. It is a measure, on a logarithmic scale, of the ratio of the acoustic sound power incident on the tested piece to the acoustic ...

Related to Noise Reduction

  • WORKFORCE REDUCTION In the event that funding reductions or shortfalls in funding occur in a department or are expected, which may result in layoffs, the department will notify the union and take the following actions:

  • Staff Reduction In the event the District adopts a reduced educational program by reason of financial necessity, including but not limited to, levy failure and/or decreased State or Federal support, certificated employees who will be retained to implement the District’s reduced or modified program and those certificated employees who will be non-renewed from employment or adversely affected in contract status shall be identified by the provisions contained in this Article. If the District is only reducing provisional employees, the following procedures do not need to be implemented.

  • Automatic Reduction Promptly following each date on which the Required Amount is reduced as a result of a reduction in the Pool Balance of the Class B Certificates or otherwise, the Maximum Commitment shall automatically be reduced to an amount equal to such reduced Required Amount (as calculated by the Borrower). The Borrower shall give notice of any such automatic reduction of the Maximum Commitment to the Liquidity Provider within two Business Days thereof. The failure by the Borrower to furnish any such notice shall not affect such automatic reduction of the Maximum Commitment.

  • Fee Reduction The Adviser agrees that from the commencement of operations of the Fund through January 31, 2020, it will reduce its compensation and/or reimburse certain expenses for the Fund, to the extent necessary to ensure that the Fund’s total operating expenses, excluding taxes, “Acquired Fund” fees and expenses, dividend and interest expense on securities sold short, interest, extraordinary items, and brokerage commissions, do not exceed (on an annual basis) 0.85%, as a percentage of the Fund’s average daily net assets.

  • Price Reduction Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Warrant, at any time and from time to time during the period that this Warrant is exercisable, the Company in its sole discretion may reduce the Purchase Price or extend the period during which this Warrant is exercisable.

  • Voluntary Termination or Reduction The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.06(b) shall be in an amount that is $5,000,000 or a larger multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.08, the total Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the total Commitments.

  • Notice of Voluntary Termination or Reduction The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the applicable Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments of a Class delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.

  • Voluntary Commitment Reductions (i) Borrower may, upon not less than three Business Days’ prior written or telephonic notice promptly confirmed by delivery of written notice thereof to Administrative Agent (which original written or telephonic notice Administrative Agent will promptly transmit by telefacsimile or telephone to each applicable Lender), at any time and from time to time terminate in whole or permanently reduce in part, without premium or penalty, the Revolving Commitments in an amount up to the amount by which the Revolving Commitments exceed the Total Utilization of Revolving Commitments at the time of such proposed termination or reduction; provided that any such partial reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount.

  • Voluntary Reduction The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time, upon at least five (5) Business Days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, to permanently reduce, without premium or penalty, (i) the entire Revolving Credit Commitment at any time or (ii) portions of the Revolving Credit Commitment, from time to time, in an aggregate principal amount not less than $3,000,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Any reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitment shall be applied to the Revolving Credit Commitment of each Revolving Credit Lender according to its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage. All Commitment Fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Revolving Credit Commitment shall be paid on the effective date of such termination.

  • Voluntary Termination or Reduction of Commitments The Company may, upon not less than five Business Days' prior notice to the Agents, terminate the Commitments, or permanently reduce the Commitments by an aggregate minimum amount of $100,000 or any multiple of $50,000 in excess thereof; unless, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of Loans made on the effective date thereof, the then-outstanding principal amount of the Loans would exceed the amount of the combined Commitments then in effect. Once reduced in accordance with this Section, the Commitments may not be increased. Any reduction of the Commitments shall be applied to each Bank according to its Pro Rata Share. All accrued commitment fees to, but not including the effective date of any reduction or termination of Commitments, shall be paid on the effective date of such reduction or termination.
